A Colombian surgeon and his nurse are now subject to public ire after their video went viral on social media. In the video, a surgeon named David Majana, and his nurse, named Angelica Mejia, can be seen dancing to pop music in the middle of a surgery.

As soon as the music starts, they immediately drop their equipment and dance to a Bruno Mars hit song. After a few moments, they suddenly stop dancing, picked up their equipment, and continued with the surgery as if nothing happened.

The video was leaked to Medellin councillor Bernardo Alejandro Guerra, who insists to take action against the said doctor.

Mr Guerra told local media: “This is a lack of ethics and respect for the patient and the profession.

The amazing thing is that the anaesthesiologist does not appear in the video. He is the one responsible for the sleeping of the patient and he allows them to dance in the room, without respecting the protocol.”

It is understood Mr Guerra leaked the footage because of complaints made by other patients about how Dr Majana Navarro had treated people in the past.

The video was apparently leaked by the doctor’s former medical partner.
